Donald Trump Made This Big Change to the Oval Office

The President added a special button to his desk

The Oval Office is perhaps one of the most recognizable rooms in the world, and while Presidents come and go, the historic office stays pretty much the same, save for updates on trimmings and artwork. President Donald Trump, however, has made one unusual addition to the famed Resolute Desk: a red button that, when pressed, summons a butler with an ice-cold Coke in hand.

Trump's unconventional method for attaining his soft-drink fix was revealed in a recent story by the Associated Press chronicling Trump's first 100 days in office. The article reads, "A man accustomed to wealth and its trappings, Trump has embraced life in the Executive Mansion, often regaling guests with trivia about the historic decor. With the push of a red button placed on the Resolute Desk that presidents have used for decades, a White House butler soon arrived with a Coke for the president."

Though the Coca Cola summoning is new, the red button, situated in a wooden call box, has been used in the past by presidents in need of an aide, Business Insider reports. However, it hasn't always been situated on the Resolute Desk, which was given to Rutherford B. Hayes by Queen Victoria in 1880.

This isn't the only alteration that the Trumps have made to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. First Lady Melania Trump reportedly called for the addition of a "glam room" to her presidential accommodations where she could ready her hair, makeup, and wardrobe for public appearances. And Donald Trump's own snacking habits have been in the spotlight before, as well. The New York Times reported early in his presidency that the White House kitchen stocked up on Lay's potato chips once the president moved in. Now we have a pretty clear idea of Trump's preferred beverage to wash down those salty crisps.

So, though the phrase "red button" in relation to the Oval Office typically brings to mind something a little more ominous, for now, we can rest assured that the only power this particular button wields is its ability to obliterate a caffeine craving.
